John awoke to find himself in a Nice Kings Sized Bed with Silken Sheets. ''What The Fuck?'' Asks John as He Turns To Find Philippa Snuggling Into His Side. John chuckled Slightly before Getting Up. Being ever so subtle as not to disturb Philippa. He Splashed Water on his Face for a little bit before he saw that his Injuries had fully healed. ''Benefits of being A Hybrid.'' Says John with A Chuckle. ''Still, I'd Best Make Certain that I'm not alone.'' Says John quietly. He clicks his fingers and a Black Suit is on him instantly. Though he Preferred White or at the Very least a Navy Suit, He wanted to Switch things up for a time. He walked out and took a Seat Next to Nimrod. ''Your Awake? Good? What do you know about these Dong Xi?'' Asks Nimrod. ''Not Much, Heard about it a ways back, something about a Warrior Devil, A Ventriloquist and A Chinese Monarch. But not much else? Am I Correct in assuming They’re Back?'' Asks John.' 'One of them Absorbed Mr. Raskhasas. Is it Possible he's still Alive?'' Asks Nimrod. ''Depends on the Dong Xi, The Controller, and The Level of Power of tne Particular Dong Xi who absorbed him, If I Saw the site or his Absorption, I Could Use my Astral-Sense to Detect any Residual Trace of him. So where are we anyway?'' Asks John as He surveys his surroundings more carefully. ''Venice. We'll Be Here at least until Faustina gets better, until then? Ah, Who could know?'' Says Nimrod.

''If You Don't Mind, I've an Errand I Need To run since we're in Venice, I’m Afraid it's quite urgent.'' Says John as he Shows Nimrod A Photograph. ''Go Eight ahead. Maybe Take Philippa With You?'' Suggests Nimrod. ''No It's best I go alone. Best for Everyone.'' Says John as he gets up and Leaves He utters his Focus Word for his Djinn Power. "HEAVANAFABULONGMEDICABRAINCACSIAVITAE."

(Doge's Old Palace)

John Began to Use his Power to show the way as he entered the Tunnels beneath the Old Doge Palace in Venice. He Had only been here once before, so he knew his way around more or less. John Walked until there was naught but a chasm before him and kept walking across. Suddenly a Number of Pillars shot up from beneath the Dark Depths of the Chasm at The Other Side stood an Altar that held on it a Glowing Necklace. ''And So It Begins, He He Walks The Path of Fire and Of Light Stands Alone against The Encroaching Darkness. But Even He, must find Love and Warmth on the Path. This is our Oath, Our Binding Promise.

Says John as A Blinding Light engulfs the Necklace and John picks it up when the Light subsides. ''That was............Different'' Says John as he Leaves the Cavern and heads back to the Hotel where he awoke.

''Phil we need to talk privately when we can.'' Says John as He and Philippa lock eyes. Suddenly a Voice rings out which Faustina Recognizes. ''Faustina?'' ''Mom?'' Replies Faustina. Suddenly Djinn Doctor, and Faustina and Dybbuck's Mother, Jenny Sachertorte aplears and Hugs her Daughter. ''Philippa?'' Asks John and just as she turns to Face him he wraps His arm around her Waist Pulls her into a Deep Kiss. He finally let's Go to find her Looking at him with a Face Saturated with a Mixed Look of intervals between Blushing and Looking Stunned. ''We Need To talk.'' Says John as they exit the Elevator.
